Dear reader,
I'm so excited to finally show you the very FIRST piece of my upcoming Vulnerability Shields collection!
I created this collection to inspire you to think about and drop the vulnerability shields you're wearing because all they do is.. they prevent genuine connection. They prevent us from feeling understood and they rip our sense of belonging.
This jewelry collection is inspired by 7 different and very commonly (yes, you're far from being alone in feeling a certain way) worn vulnerability shields.
Today I share with you the jewelry piece that is inspired by the Vulnerability Shield that is waaay too common in our society - Perfectionism. Perfectionism isolates us, tries to convince us that we're different than other people therefore we should feel ashamed. But the truth is, it is lying to us. It makes us feel much more lonely and creates a great breeding ground for shame. Sharing about our 'imperfections' not only diminishes the shame we feel around them but also helps us to connect to our fellow human-beings.
So I created these earrings to give you wearable reminders to lower your perfectionism shields. Every time you look in the mirror or touch this earring you're wearing, I want you to be reminded that perfection is unattainable and that the only thing that 'trying to appear perfect' will do is prevent you from feeling connected to other people.
Warm regards,
Aistė
